Which tuner to get and getting the most from it. Thank God, for the radio!

RE: I sent Bill an email this morning...

Todd,
I have a couple of 8300s. good tuners. both are heavily upgraded. If you get into doing the mods or upgrades, the biggest sonic improvements in desending order are:

1. new filter caps and bypassing the filters with film and foil caps in the power supply ( I use the Nichicon for bypasses and PW types main filters)
2. soft recovery rectifiers in the power supply
3. bypassing the interstage electrolytic coupling caps with film and foil in the audio stages.
4. using bulk foil resistors in the few power supply locations.


good luck.

J
